Never trust a southerner. No, I’m kidding. They’re wonderful. You want to believe in his niceness and his charm, but he’s an evil kind of crazy man who’s righteous. Fear the righteous.
I love hiking in the hills not far from my house. I’m invested in my hikes. Sometimes kids go up there and spray-paint over the signs; I’ve found a biodegradable paint cleaner, and I’ll scrub the signs so they’re nice and clean.
I don’t have 4 or 5 projects in front of me and an offer on every one saying ‘what one would you like to do?’ Things come along one at a time.
I like making sci-fi movies because I like watching sci-fi movies. I like watching horror. I like being in a horror movie. I’m a fan. My perspective’s a little different just because I get to participate as well as spectate.
I have a cat. I’m not a cat-person, but she came with the house that I’m renting. I don’t know how many hundreds of dollars worth of bump removals, teeth removals, cleanings and vet fees I’ve been through since then. But of course I love her and she’s worth it.
I love what I do. And why not be nice? I mean, I’ve seen people who work and they’re apparently not enjoying it, and they’re making sure everybody knows it.
I want my job to include a little adventure, a little more of a heightened reality than what I’m actually living.
There are people who have energy that say ‘don’t come near me, don’t get too close.’ There’s people like Adrienne Shelley who have the energy of ‘come over here and give me a hug and if you’re around me you’re going to be happy about it.’
What I know of Steve Trevor is everything that I learned from ‘Wonder Woman,’ the television series with Lynda Carter. And I don’t remember much. I do remember his uniform, though.
When people embrace character, there’s latzie. It’s the stuffing of a scene that’s not written. It’s not in the stage direction and it’s not in the words. When people embrace character, it informs their living, breathing moments in a scene so well.
I love when a TV show, or entertainment in general, makes me feel something; be it positive, be it negative, be it happiness, be it awkward, uncomfortable if it can make me feel, it’s done it’s job.
Somebody told me long ago that in acting, it’s okay to steal, just steal from the best.
I don’t spend a lot of time online.
The trick is, when you grow up, find work that feels like play.
I consider ‘Dr. Horrible’ a tremendous success. The fact that it won an Emmy I just think lends validity to what we were doing and the point we were trying to make: taking the power into someone else’s hands and changing the world.
The nature of the beast is, art needs finance. That’s how this industry works.
I like doing things where I can get dirty, work with my hands, and use power tools. Last weekend, I did some grouting.
What turned me on to comedy was – well, first of all, I like being able to laugh, I like people who can make me laugh.
Oh, boy. I’m still in touch with about 90 percent of my exes. They would describe me as being unlucky in love.
I realized, dumb people don’t know they’re dumb. When people try to make me laugh and they try to be funny, that’s when they lose me. I find a lot of comedy in honesty.
